WHEN: Oct. 21 and 22, from 9 a.m. to 9 a.m. - "24 hours to make a difference"

WHY: Donors are the reason we can offer scholarships, unique academic programs, undergraduate research opportunities and many other advancement efforts that support student success. One Day for UWL is a tradition celebrating what it means to Live Maroon and Give Maroon!

Six years = $600K goal

Over the years, One Day for UWL has continued to grow thanks to the generosity of alumni and friends. As we mark six years of One Day for UWL, we are challenging the UWL community to raise $600,000 in 24 hours. Let's come together and show what it means to be an Eagle!
